Thiruvanthapuram, May 20 (IBNS) : A 23-year-old law student in Kerala on Friday chopped off the genitals of a self-styled godman who had allegedly been raping her since she was a minor, media reports said.

According to a police complaint, Swamy Gangeshananda, a member of the Kollam-based Panmana Ashram, had been raping her at her home for the last eight years.

When the accused tried to force himself on the woman at her home on Friday night, she grabbed a sharp object and chopped off his penis. She reportedly called the police herself.

The accused was rushed to the Thiruvananthapuram Medical College where an emergency surgery was performed.

He is stated to be out of danger.

The law student has complained that her mother was also sexually abused by the accused. Her father suffered a paralysis attack a few years ago.
